Even the farms Y along a read could be numbered from one town to another. eU this season, when the corn 1 being fed s to the hogs, it should be remembered that the warmer and mere comfortable the hogs are kept the less cern required. Before hogs can fatten the bodies must he supplied with sufficient heat to protect agaiost °old, and the greater the amount of heat seved the larger the gain in fat. A perfect strainer is made of three thick- nesses of fine bolting -cloth in a tin frame' like the hocips of a hair.seive. It should be so constructed that the three cloths can, be takeo off and cleaned separately. Fine dust that will pass thromghone thickness of cloth or wire gauge will be arrested when two or n three are laid together, and not a hair win go through, Though long custom has given the prefer. once to large hogs, yet the mall cereases sell better than the heavier when sent to market. Experience has taught many farmers that it is cheaper to raise pork quickly than to keep pigs over winter in order to allow them fifteen months' growth instead of ten, as a good spring pig will be ready by Christmas. If there be any materiels that are unfit for / use on the farm, such as rakings, leaves, a' or dried weeds, consign them to the flames, ct as it is much better to do so than to have them in the way. Fire will do more to de- stroy weed seeds and save labor during the growing season than any other agent. At this season get ready for the next by reduc- ing the number of articles. Do not store your root crops in inounds if it can be avoided, as it is difficult to get at them for use when the ground is frozen. Make bins in the barn, and pack them in dry earth or sand. Endeavor to avoid all the moisture possible In this manner they will not only be protected from frost but will be within easy access and in any quantity de- sired during ti'o coldest days of winter. The following is the method of curing hams that received the prize at a New Eng. land fair : To every 100 pounds of meat take 8 pounds of salt, 2 ounces saltpetre, 2 pounds brown sugar, la. ounces potash and 4 gallous water. Mix them and pour theliquicl over the hams after they have been in the tub two days, they having been rubbed with fine salt when put in the tub. They should remain in this pickle six weeks, then taken out, hung up tlirec days to dry and smoked. EacTs FArts,auts Oki= TO KNOW. Parsnips ma l'ss bit inVe ground. through 0, the winter.. A' 0 e.

Experimente made at the Michigan Agri- cultural college make it appear that the ashes of corn cobs have a value as man ure of $2.50 per 100 pounds, which is mor than twice that of hard wood or of woo ashes. Do not cook good, sound, wholesome root ce geniis for stock. Now is the time to look over the seed catalogues and make selections. It is said that if apples be fed to cows the flow of milk Will be diminished. Dry earth or muckin stables will save man ure, prevent disease and keep the milk front being tainted/ s The Crowif Prince of Germany sells 1,000 quarts of milk every day from his farm at Panetz, near Berlin. Some dairymen save the last fourth of the milk from the cow iu a emparate vessel and pour it directly into a cream jar. A common hoe, straightened out by a blacksmith, makes a cheap and excellent implement for chopping roots for stock. Frozen apples may be utilized by being made into cider. Some varieties will yield more juiafter being frozen than before. le Secretary Sh ffer states that the use of pyrethura on cabbage plants to kill the worms has been attended with entire suc- cess.

Whether prices be up or down, prime imutton sheep are always salable, and at , good prices. The markets are never supplied gee_with choice mutton. If your hay 1 falling short cut the hay and straw together, add bran and shorts, with a little salt water to moisten the mass and the whole will be eaten. „..__ If butter-makere only possessed hall the strength which mu n of their product does early in its career, they could defy compo- sition with a large-sized defy. There never was a time when so many minds were at work or so many efforts made in various directions to advance the prac- tice and science of agriculture. There is nothing better for the manure heap than soapsuds. It preveets fire-fang- ing, arrests the escape of volatile matter and hastens chemical changes and decomposition. Try crude petroleum, which will cost about 10 cents a gallon, as a wood preserva- tive. Applied to fences and wood that rests on the ground, it will add years to the wear. If you have any spare time during the wiuter it can be put to profitable use in fork- ing over the manure heap. The materials can nobe too fine or thoroughly decomposed. Now that eggs are high the best way to get them is to have warm quarters for the hens and feed on a variety of food, with meat as a portion of the ration three times per week. An excellent mode of utilizing any spare time of winter 1 to clean up and burn all dried grass and weeds. Trimming the trees and vines may be done any time between now and spring. Farm y refits vested in permanent im- provements return larger dividends than when deposited in banks or invested in other directions. A farm cannot be to highly improved. The fall colts may be given all the ground oats they can eat. As the mares will have but little labor to perform at this season there will be no necessity for weaning the colts before spring. Stock, as a rule, are naturtilly clean and will not lie down to rest in a manure pile if more cleanly and comfortable quarters are provided, and we all know that cleanliness is conducive to health. It 1 said t at when a horse strays off he 1 usually foils 'wandering in the direction the wind is flngthus turning his back to the wind, but with sheep the contrary is the case, as the sheep face the storm. Try cutting clover into ehort lengths, steeping it over night in hot water, and feed- ing to the hogs. It makes a cheap food but one of the best, not only assisting them in growth but greatly promoting health. All the plans for next season should be ar- ranged now, Have everythiag in readiness to begin work when busy spring conies, as no time can be spared to attend to those matters which may be overlooked now. There is as much profit in horse•raising as with any other class of stock, A good pas- ture will enable the farmer to raiee two or three colts at but little expense, and if they are well-bred they will always sell at good prices. Mr. W, R. Halstead tried planting wheat in drills and oultivating it like corn. The prodnetion was doubled, He recommends planting the rows eixteen inches apart ard cultivating with the bulbtorigue plow. 13ut it would be a lot of trouble. The coneumption ot food by dairy stock paid back in a three-fehl way -milk„ growth Of stock, and the vatic of the mantire, which last often balances the first cost of the food 9irt Rules For Winter. There are a number of rules for winter going the rounds of the press, which, while very good in their way, will admit of some slight improvement. We will give a few for the benefit of those who have not sense enough to observe them without instruction: Never lean the back upon anything that is cold. Do not select a chunk of ice or a snow drift to lean upon, and if your feet should suddenly slide from under you, thus bringing your back in contact with an icy sidwalk, get up immediately and hurry away, as yon remaining in that position might oceasion remarks. • - Never begin a journey until the break- fast has been eaten. If you have no appe. tite you can always get some one to eat the breakfast for you. Never take warm drinks awl then im- mediately go out in the cold air. Sit around the stove and tell jokes for a while, or play a game of billiards. It will be more beneficial to the saloon keeper. Never go to bed with cold f eet. If your wife insists on having cold feet, sleeein another room, as to do otherwise would r; compel you to violate the first rule given above. Never omit regular bathing. Every man should bathe at least once during the winter, and do it regularly. Never speak much when hoarse, or the voice may be permanently lost. Observe this rule strictly yourself, but io not at- tempt to impose it upon your mother-in- law. Never keep the back to the fire after 1 gets warm enough, because by continuing to do so you are liable to get burned. When going from one atmosphere into a colder one, keep the mouth °loosed. If you contemplate a trip to the North Pole, do not mention it, or you may be considered a fit subject for a lunatic asylum. Never stand still in very cola weather, or exposed to a cold wind, because -but any fool knows enough to observe this rule without telling him. Gas as a Measure of Love. "Rebecca, 1 ton'd vish clot you should keep gompany mit dot Igey Eisenheim some more." "Vhy, fader, Igey vas a wery nice young man ?" "Dat is wery drue put you don't lofe Igey truly mid pesides der gas pills vas higher as dey vas fer clwo vinters vile you vas keeping gompeny mit Moses Schoeffen- sdadt. You lofed Moses more as Igey. Dot gas pill never fails. I dink it vas better of you keep gompany mit Moses. Times is pooty hard." He Understood. " But, father," she protested as the old c man ceased speaking, yon do not seera to understand the case." "Oh, but I do. You shall never marry William, even if he 1 my confidential clerk." " Father, you-" " That 1 all, Helens -say no more." Four days later she wrote him from Tor- onto, saying : "Will said I arrived here safely, and were married at once. We have $60,000 of your money. Is all forgiven ot shall we settle down here ?" He telegraphed his forgiveness. What 10 Cents Will Do. A 10 cent bottle of Polson's Nerviline will cure neuralgia or headache.

The supposed bars of silver are simply lead. "William Black, the novelist, has ob- tained a verdict for £100 damages against Bow Bello for libelous assertions respecting. his early life and parsimonious habits. The' main injury was that it called him a "canny Scotsmen" and accueed him of marrying for financial advancement. Mr. Gladstone was paid $1,250 for his arti de in the Nineteenth Century Review on Lord Tennyson's " Locksley Hall Sixty Years After," which is one of the largest, if not the largest, price ever paid in England for so short an essay. However, it was a lucky hit for the Review, as it had an enor- mous sale in cousequence. Queen Victoria 1 reported to be breaking very rapidly and to be conscious that she cannot live very many years longer. There is a general apprehension among the people of England that the Queen may not live till the year is completed. Tbe appearance of old age 1 most clearly marked in her jubilee portrait, which has just been completed and placed in the gallery leading to her private apartments at Windsor. The Century Magazine prints for the first time these words of Abraham Lincoln, given in an official reprimand to a young officer who had been court martialed for quarrel- ling : " The advice of a father to his son, 'Beware of entrance to a quarrel, but being in, bear it that the opposed may beware of thee 1' is good, but not the best. Quarrel not at all. No man resolved to make the most of himself can spare time for personal contention. Still less can he afford to take all the consequences, including the vitiating of his temper and the loss of self-control. Yield larger things to which you can show no more than equal right, and yield lesser ones, though clearly your own. Better give your wrath to a dog than be bitten by him in contesting for the right. Even killing the dog would not cure the bite." The J'ingle of the Bells. Ah ! the fleecy flakes are falling Through the frosty winter night, And January winds are calling Us to scenes of rare delight There are roguish eyes that glisten, As the snow of pleasure tells; And the rustic sweethearts listen For the jingle of the bells - For the jingle and the tingle Of the merry winter bells. In the Cupid.haunted valley, 'Twixt the old hills lying low, Where the summer breezes daily, Falls the lover -cherished snow. Oh, the silence of tomorrow Will be broken in the delis! And the heart will gladness borrow From the jingle of the bells - From the tinkle, tinkle, tinkle Of the never ceasing bells. Jingle ! jingle! in the starlight, Tinkle I tinkle 1 in the dark, Gliding swiftly toward the far light In the window, but a spark There can be no joys completer Than the ones the snow foretells; Ah 5 my darling, what is sweeter Than a kiss behind the bells -- As they jingle, jingle, jingle O'er the snow, the sleighing bells Life is but a dream of pleasure That returns with every snow, Winter fills to -day the measure Emptied often long ago. 'Neath the cutter's furry covers Many a heart with rapture swells, .And the merry laugh of lovers Greets the jingle of the bells - Greets the laughter and the jingle Of the ever -merry bells ! On the road and in the wildwood Nature dons a robe of white, And the happy laugh of childhood Will be heard tomorrow night l Everywhere the bells will jingle 'Neeth the starry sentinels, And the lassie's cheelc will tingle With the kiss the sound iinpels- With a kiss that gently mingles With the laughter of the bells I Oh, the bells my heart remembers, With their music soft andlow I Oh, the sleigh bolls of the winters luried in the long ago 1 I remember, eyes that glistened When the snow Wed in the dells ; I remember cars that listened For the jingle of the bells - For the jingle, jingle, jingle Of the rich and jolly bells.

There were 121,382 with less than three years' service, or 7,000 more than in the year before; of men with between three and four years' service the total was 21,586. Altogether there were last year in the force 26,587 who had served 10 years and upwards, as compared with 25,764 ha 1884. The number of men who joined during the year was 50,828. "Does it Pay to Be a Woman ?" The above question is being agitated in many of our exchanges, and many of the views respecting it are very amusing. One writer, evidently a woman whose path in life has been a thorny one, complains bitter- ly that it does not pay to be a woman and receive three hundred dollars a year for the saane work that a man would be paid six or eight hundred for doing. At the same time she calls attention to the fact that when a man usurps a woman's province, he still re- ceives double pay, as in the case of cooks and landrymen. Another " woman " fin& it an easy mat. ter to "Sit on a cushion and sew up a seam, And live upon strawberries, sugar arid cream." She does not appear to reflect, that to many of us the seam is an endless one, that all cushions are not of damask and. down, that much of the "cream" of life is only skim milk, and that it Is given to only a few of us to have our strawberries served upon Sevres. Since, however, the matter is one beyond our control, and having begun life as women we cannot well change our role, it seems to me that the more pertinent question is, "What manner of women shall we be ?" Surely a woman pays hersex a poor com- pliment in ceaselessly lamenting that heaven has not made her "such" a Inc,,. In the present enlightened age, we women have really very little cause for complaint; near- ly every business a.nd all professions are open to us. Some years ago, a lady moving in the most refined circles of New York, with au elegant home and every enjoyment in life that money could buy, by a sudden reverse of fortune that often comes to the very wealthy, lost every dollar of her money. I next saw her in the log cabin of a California settlement, doing for her family the duties of nurse, cook and seamstress. In the one room that did duty for parlor, nursery and bedroom, with the aid of the tin wash basin that took the place of her luxurious bath -room and toilet equipments, she cheer- fully washed the hands and faces and smoothed the curls of her little ones, with a smile and cheerful word for all. It "pays" to be such a woman. "Her children shall rise up and call her -blessed, her husband, he praiseth her." taw. 0.....eiso The Professor at the Boarding -House Table.
